There is one further thing that might have some bearing 
on this problem.

A couple of days ago, there was an updates-testing (I 
am still running this repo) update with a new kernel, 
systemd (?) and some qt5 (?) things in it. I don't 
recall what else. About last Thursday.

Anyway, after I rebooted the computer in order to use 
the new kernel, I logged in to KDE from the login 
screen and KDE loaded with a black screen. It took 
about 30 seconds, before the desktop appeared, and then 
another 30 seconds or so for the system tray to appear. 
Normally, both the desktop and system tray are there 
within a second or so after login.

Maybe something in the update is defective and is 
preventing some kind of system communication?

I haven't tried using the previous kernel yet. I should 
do it.
